I just dont get all the accolade. I absolutely love my lip gloss and the matt one even though the wand is awkward but, the foundation? Goodness me i wish Id never bought it but i was at the airport and needed one the coverage is no better than my cheap NYX one, the tinted moisturiser type. The CT ordinary lipstick is hardly there i was told it was a rich coral but i have to apply it three times to get it to show any colour. For thise prices. I think i will save my money and stick to Mac (who arent as good as they used be either)

Very hit and miss. I find the lipsticks very drying but the Collagen Lip Bath is fast becoming my 'can't live without' lip product. I use the chunky eye pencil things on my top lid but had to buy the specific CT sharpener as they broke in other sharpeners. I bought the concealer but got rid of it as the coverage was crap. I like the Film Star bronze and glow thing when they put it on me but it can look very alien/spaceman-y.

Love the lipsticks and kohl liner but the foundation and concealer was a complete waste of money.

Try nars.

No. I've liked everything I've bought, enjoyed the lovely packaging and had excellent service in the shop every time.

I wouldn't turn my nose up if someone was to give me a make up box full of the stuff!

I bought one of the refillable lipsticks cos I liked the package and the colour but it’s meh. It’s drying as well. I’d rather have a door lipstick for the same price.

Hit and miss. Some things I love and others are rubbish. I got a special edition eyeshadow palette for Xmas. Can’t remember it’s name but I love it!
I also like her cream eyeshadows and her glow primer. Some of her lipsticks are nice but I got one from hot lips range and I found pigmentation and staying power was rubbish. Eye concealer and mascara both rubbish as well. Packaging is always lovely though.
